If [Eva Braun] was crying upstairs, it wouldn't be long before [Adolf] Hitler would quietly excuse himself and then make things right. What he said to her, I don't know. Whether he said the words I'm sorry, I don't know. But he was a charmer, he knew how to stop a woman from crying.

All sorts of local things like that.
